== Signing ==
Please remember to always sign your comments. You can sign your comments with 4 tildes (~) or clicking the signature stamp ([[File:Signature button.png]]) on the top of the edit box. It should also be noted that once your comment has been marked as unsigned, you cannot replace it with your signature as it will give off the wrong time stamp. Thank you for taking your time to read this message, have a good day. {{unsigned|Force Fire}}
:Again, please sign your comments with four tildes or by clicking the signature button above the edit box. Thank you. {{unsigned|Force Fire}}

== Sources ==

Please provide a link or an image to your source, don't just say it. Show, don't tell.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 14:42, 26 August 2015 (UTC)

Not easy as the info came by PM from GummiYummy who is in email contact with her --[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 15:04, 26 August 2015 (UTC)
:Then ask him for photo evidence. Don't just believe everything he says.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 15:41, 26 August 2015 (UTC)

== Unsigned ==

Please don't re-sign and unsigned signature, it will give off the wrong timestamp. Manually typing in the correst timestamp won't do either. So if you're comment has been marked as unsigned, just leave it.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 16:25, 14 December 2015 (UTC)

My apologies, I am trying to help out here so sorry for any errors --[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 16:31, 14 December 2015 (UTC)

== M18 Cast ==
Did you get permission from Force Fire to post it? [[User:Technickal|Technickal]] ([[User talk:Technickal|talk]]) 17:21, 26 December 2015 (UTC)

Not too sure there Technickal sir, sent him an email the other but unsure, do you have a user account on the forum, perhaps I can PM you it with the cast list--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 19:59, 26 December 2015 (UTC)
:I did get an email, you said the screencap was too big. So I sent you another emailing saying to split the screencap in two if it's too big. Haven't gotten your response yet.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 03:46, 27 December 2015 (UTC)

Don't seem to have received any email from you but then again, i'm not sure how, I should explain I have aspergers syndrome so might not understand things as easily as you but sent you an email with 3 screenshots of the email I got from Theresa, the first having her email address visible--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 11:28, 27 December 2015 (UTC)
:You didn't get my email? strange. Anyways, the screenshots are better, you may add the information.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 12:50, 27 December 2015 (UTC)

== VA sources ==

Once more, if you are adding English voice actors, you must attest a source, ''always''. Please try not to forget. Thank you. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 15:14, 2 June 2016 (UTC)

== English actor suggestion ==

If you find the English actor of Sliggoo and Heliolisk, let me know which website to go.--[[User:CoolPokeGuy|CoolPokéGuy]] ([[User talk:CoolPokeGuy|Talk]]) 17:32, 16 August 2016 (UTC)

==Userspace limits==
Hello. I have noticed that you have been editing the <code>User:</code> namespace a lot recently, and have made a total of 4+ userspace edits today. Please do not edit the userspace any more, as the {{bp|userspace policy}} limits the amount you can edit your userpage: No more than three edits per day (by {{wp|UTC}}), and you must contribute to the {{bp|mainspace}} more than you edit your user page(s). This policy was instated to promote people helping out in the mainspace, and also to control strain on our servers. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, after all, so help us out by contributing to some articles before coming back to your personal page(s). The more often you edit in the mainspace, the more you will be allowed to edit your user page(s). Thank you. --[[User:Berrenta|Berrenta]] ([[User talk:Berrenta|talk]]) 20:14, 20 August 2016 (UTC)

== Succeed ==

Thanks for finding the English actor for Sliggoo and Goodra. I knew it was Tom Wayland, but nobody didn't believe. And I was having trouble finding a source and contacting him.--[[User:CoolPokeGuy|CoolPokéGuy]] ([[User talk:CoolPokeGuy|Talk]]) 12:56, 11 September 2016 (UTC)
:You're welcome, I had a feeling it was Tom Wayland as well but thought I would wait until Goodra's return before enquiring with Lisa Ortiz--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 13:06, 11 September 2016 (UTC)

== Subpages ==

Hello! I noticed you have a list of voice actors in your user page, and while this is not at all a problem, I thought I'd inform you that you can create subpages of your user page for things like this--e.g., [[User:BigDocFan/List of VAs]] would be a good place to put a list of voice actors, if you'd prefer not to clutter up your userpage. User subpages, if intended to be put in the mainspace, are also ''candidates'' for exemption from the userspace edit limit (though they are only candidates, and you have to get permission from an editorial board member, I believe, for exemption). Just thought I'd let you know in case you didn't! --[[User:Xolroc|Felthry]] (F.K.A. Xolroc) ([[User talk:Xolroc|talk]]) 18:34, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
:I didn't know how to create subpages, thank you so much, I would hate to get in trouble with admin--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 18:35, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
::Hey, that's fine. You're not in any trouble now--just remember those subpages count towards your three-edit limit too unless you talk to an editorial board member and get an exemption! --[[User:Xolroc|Felthry]] (F.K.A. Xolroc) ([[User talk:Xolroc|talk]]) 18:54, 18 January 2017 (UTC)

== Link templates ==

I've seen you using link templates before, so I think you already know what they are. I just wanted to remind you to make use of them when appropriate (<code><nowiki>{{p|Dragonite}}</nowiki></code> instead of <code><nowiki>[[Dragonite]]</nowiki></code>), and to let you know about templates that you might not be aware of: {{template|Ash}} for linking directly to [[Ash Ketchum]], {{template|MTR}} for linking directly to [[Meowth (Team Rocket)]] (no TR template needed!), and {{template|an}} for linking to character pages with the (anime) suffix. Thanks!--[[User:Cold|Cold]] ([[User talk:Cold|talk]]) 15:45, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
:Guess there are some areas that I am still learning.--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 17:02, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
::Attention. This a [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Kiawe%27s_Turtonator&action=historysubmit&type=revision&diff=2661584&oldid=2660562 another reminder] to use link templates when appropriate. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 21:53, 30 June 2017 (UTC)

== Re:Cleanup ==

For example, you don't use commas when they would be needed, you tend to make quite a lot of grammatical errors, and overall, the synopsis you write tend to be in pretty rough English. You should ALWAYS use the preview button to make sure you don't do any mistakes you could avoid. For example, earlier today you wrote that Gladion kept his Umbreon inside an Ultra Ball, even thought its ''Lycanroc'' seen coming out of the ball. Also, your edit at {{m|Continental Crush}} felt rushed and incomplete. Don't start making edits you know you can't do properly or fully. PS. I may be rambling a bit here, the quality of your edits has just gotten on my nerves multiple times. But I guess you're still just learning. Let's hope you'll get better as time goes on. Hopefully... --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 13:15, 18 May 2017 (UTC)
:I do apologize about my not so good edits, when it comes to new episodes, I start from looking at pics posted on Serebii which don't always tell a clear story, doesn't help that I have aspergers when it comes to grammar--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 13:17, 18 May 2017 (UTC)
::I'm an Asperger too, but I've learned to do my edits more carefully and properly. I once did so many edits to same pages in a short time that I was on a forced preview for several years. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 14:18, 18 May 2017 (UTC)

== Characters ==

Please don't create pages of characters that have not debuted yet, even if you aren't around to create them. That is not a good enough reason. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 08:03, 25 May 2017 (UTC)

== Notability requirements ==

Please familiarize yourself with the [[Bulbapedia:Manual of style/Anime#Notability requirements|notability requirements]]. A Pokémon needs to do more than just appear twice to be noted, it must have some sort of impact on the plot. The Garden Pokémon had no impact on the plot, they just appeared. Thank you.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 00:07, 17 June 2017 (UTC)

== Who voiced Chesnaught in M19? ==

Hi BigDoc, I was making a list of characters/actors for [[M19]] and I noticed that you put both [[Suzy Myers]] and [[Billy Bob Thompson]] as {{p|Chesnaught}}. Did they both voice Chesnaught, or was this a mistake?
:Probably a mistake but strangely the cast list for Suzy Myers and Billy Bob Thompson both have Chesnaught, I'm '''''guessing''''' Suzy Myers as she voices Chespin.--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 20:42, 18 July 2017 (UTC)

== Episode airing times ==

I noticed that you unmasked the major events that happened in SM035 before the episode finished airing. As a general rules, things that happen during the initial airings don't get changed until after the whole episode has finished. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 16:49, 27 July 2017 (UTC)
:I apologize, having watched an episode air live on youtube I didn't realize so jumped the gun.--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 16:51, 27 July 2017 (UTC)

== Stolen content ==

You have previously been warned on the Bulbagarden Archives about stealing images from other fan sites, but do note that Bulbapedia does '''not''' tolerate the stealing of content from other fan sites in '''any form''', including but '''not limited to''' images and plot summaries. Copying information from other fan sites is called {{wp|plagiarism}}. Taking another fan site's plot summary is considered plagiarism. Taking another fan site's plot summary and switching up a few words here and there is ''still'' considered plagiarism. If you want to write up a plot summary, it must be done from scratch and in your own words. Just like we don't want other fan sites to steal our content, we don't want our users to be stealing other fan sites' content. Please be aware and respectful of our policies so that a similar case does not arise. Thank you. --[[User:Carmenstar97|Carmen★]] ''[[User talk:Carmenstar97|(Talk |]] [[Special:Contributions/Carmenstar97|contribs)]]'' 16:12, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
:Noted and taken as a final warning, last thing I want is to be blocked from a brilliant wiki like Bulbapedia.--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 16:14, 8 August 2017 (UTC)

== Please ==
Could you please refrain from making edits that relate to an episode before it finishes. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 10:34, 10 August 2017 (UTC)
:Need to try and contain my excitement, able to watch episodes as they air live on youtube and am keen to contribute more, I'll be more careful in future.--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 16:28, 10 August 2017 (UTC)
::That's alright, I did something similarly with SM033, where I forgot about the rule. I was so happy that Lana's Popplio finally got a new move. I guess quite a few of us need to contain our excitement. Also, when you add moves in the future, could you also add the description, otherwise it seems kind of lacklustre, you know what I mean? [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 16:35, 10 August 2017 (UTC)
:::Think I leave the new moves to the experts, providing descriptions without directly copying and pasting from others isn't easy.--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 16:39, 10 August 2017 (UTC)

== Request ==
Can you read what I sent you on Serebii Forums? http://www.serebiiforums.com/private.php It's a private message. [[User:Raichu65|Raichu65]] ([[User talk:Raichu65|talk]]) 14:18, 11 August 2017 (UTC)

== Type: Null ==

Maybe you didn't notice but I've had a page for [[User:Rahl/Gladion's Type: Null|Gladion's Type: Null]] in the works for months now.--[[User:Rahl|Rahl]] ([[User talk:Rahl|talk]]) 13:17, 12 August 2017 (UTC)
:For some reason when I do a check, it doesn't show--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 17:32, 12 August 2017 (UTC)
::I've had that problem as well. I'm not sure why results aren't showing up.--[[User:Rahl|Rahl]] ([[User talk:Rahl|talk]]) 18:15, 12 August 2017 (UTC)
:::It's an unintentional consequence of Bulbagarden's transfer to https. According to [[Talk:Main Page#What links here]], the staff are aware and working on getting it fixed. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 18:45, 12 August 2017 (UTC)

== Hey ==

We also don't create character pages in advance for characters of the day, even if it's on a user page. Just create it after SM040 airs. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 15:18, 23 August 2017 (UTC)
:My bad, might as well keep for now and move it when it does air now I've created it.--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 15:19, 23 August 2017 (UTC)
::User pages are usually create by people who wish for them to be main spaced or who think they are important enough to get a page under a user, so creating one for a character who we know nothing about or if the character will appear again is kind of weird. Do you get what I mean? [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 15:24, 23 August 2017 (UTC)
:::I do so will remember for future reference--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 15:25, 23 August 2017 (UTC)

== Character pages ==

Hey. Please don't create pages for anime characters unless you have some info to add. [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Dana_(SM041) This] is really too barebones. Redlinks aren't necessarily a bad thing. It's better to have a redlink than a page that contains almost nothing. ☼ Blazing[[User talk:Blazingfist|Fist ☼]] 12:50, 8 September 2017 (UTC)

== Episode Plots ==

The plot you wrote are awesome. Sometimes however, the sentence you wrote are too long and difficult to read. Just like when you read, too long of a sentence takes the breath out of you. "When", "As", "Because" are some phrases you often use to join these sentences but making them too long. If I make sense. XD

An example would be "Inside the school grounds, Ash asks Rotom what kind of Pokémon live on Akala Island but as Rotom does a search, he is hit by a Tauros which sends him flying as Charizard lands in front of Tauros to stop him as its trainer and Kiawe arrive with Kiawe telling Charizard to keep holding on as his classmates look on as Ash lands on the ground."

You can instead write it as "Inside the school grounds, Ash asks Rotom what kind of Pokémon live on Akala Island (period) As Rotom does a search, he is hit by a Tauros which sends him flying (period) As Charizard lands in front of Tauros to stop him, its Trainer and Kiawe arrive (period) Kiawe tells Charizard to keep holding on as his classmates look on as Ash lands on the ground (period)"

This is so much more comfortable to read. Haha, you can what I mean? — '''[[User:Ruixiang95|Ruixiang]][[User talk:Ruixiang95|95]]''' 11:29, 19 September 2017 (UTC)
:And here was me worrying that the sentences I was right were too short. Noted for future reference.--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 14:19, 19 September 2017 (UTC)
:Agreed. The sentences are overly long and can benefit from being split off into multiple sentences. Also, I think I might've seen some grammatical errors along the way, but I cannot recall any specific examples. Whatever the case, I gave up trying to improve the plot of [[SM030]] and tagged it, along with other episodes' plot sections you had a significant amount of contributions to, with a cleanup template. Hopefully you and/or other users can resume where I left off. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 03:49, 20 September 2017 (UTC)

== A Theory on Clemont's Heliolisk's voice ==

Hey BigDoc, I have something I want to share with you, and It's about Clemont's Heliolisk. We now it was voiced by Ryan William Downey, but I think it previous might have been voiced by Tom Wayland. On your page for him, it mentions Ryan joined the series during season 18, which makes sense as all his characters appeared in season 18 or after that, EXCEPT Clemont's Heliolisk (who first appeared in season 17). And if it was someone else, there would be no reason to recast them (the only other actor who left in season 18 was [[Jennifer Forziati-DaCosta]]). [[User:Super10ZX|Super10ZX]] ([[User talk:Super10ZX|talk]]) 17:26, 7 October 2017 (UTC)
:As far as I can tell, [[S18]] was Downey's debut unless I'm mistaken, Tom Wayland could have voiced Heliolisk before he was sacked but sadly this can't be confirmed.--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 22:43, 6 November 2017 (UTC)

== Preview button ==

Please make sure to use the preview button, even when adding multiple images to a section. I'm sure you're excited to back on the wiki again, but [[Special:Diff/2718873/2719669|this]] shouldn't take 10 edits. --[[User:Abcboy|Abcboy]] ([[User talk:Abcboy|talk]]) 11:37, 4 January 2018 (UTC)
:I can only apologize Sir, as you say I'm excited to be back on Bulbapedia, I do hope the images are satisfactory.--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 11:39, 4 January 2018 (UTC)
:''Please'' use that preview button. I had to resize and re-position the new photos you added to the articles of Ash's traveling companions to make sure they don't interfere with other photos. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 23:22, 5 January 2018 (UTC)

Again. Use the preview button. If you're going over a large page or planning to touch multiple sections, use "edit this page" and do everything together. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 14:24, 8 April 2018 (UTC)

== Your new page ==

Hey BigDoc. So I see you are making your own Voice Actor predictions page. I'm perfectly okay with this, it will be nice to see another persons predictions! It wasn't even my original idea in the first place, it was based off pages other people made, but haven't changed in a long time. [[User:Super10ZX|Super10ZX]] ([[User talk:Super10ZX|talk]]) 16:16, 9 January 2018 (UTC)
:Thanks, hope you continue with your own page, will be nice to see how our predictions compare.--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 16:17, 9 January 2018 (UTC)

== Consecutive edits ==

I just need to remind you that you shouldn't be doing 9 or so consecutive edits with a short period of time. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 15:26, 8 April 2018 (UTC)

== Pre-airing edits ==

Hi. I want to let you know, I've been asking people not to hide information about an episode on any page except the episode page before it airs. So that means refraining from [[Special:Diff/2769612|your edit here]] adding hidden templates for Nanu's Pokemon that were expected for SM073/74. That hidden info has just now resulted in a minor edit war, and that's a pattern that has happened several times previously as well. As far as I'm concerned, that all adds up to more of a hassle than it's otherwise worth. It'll be much cleaner if people just add the info fully and with much less room for argument once the episode airs.

So, please confine pre-airing edits of hidden information to an episode's page. Thank you. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 15:44, 26 April 2018 (UTC)
:I understand and started removing some of the edits but have made a copy of them to be posted when the episode airs.--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 15:45, 26 April 2018 (UTC)

hello
I am currently working on fixing a mistake that has been made in regards to the Ugandan-American voice actress {{red link|Annice Moriarty}}, a woman that some in the anime communities have mistaken for a similar sounding voice actress named [[Kether Donohue]]
I'm wondering if you can help me migrate the page over to {{red link|Annice Moriarty}} as they are not the same person at all.
I've looked all over the internet, and I am unable to find any sources at all, even if she was not my sister.
Can I ask for help in correcting this mistake?
We actually did a parody of this on a youtube channel we created called Kether Ketchup, which was meant to make fun of the internet's mistake about Annie.
I would deeply appreciate help in fixing this error, and would like to know what sources people claim to have so we can address them.

== Kether Donohue and Annice Moriarty ==

Hello
I am going to make some edits based purely on two things:
*The knowledge that Annice Moriarty is most definitely not [[Kether Donohue]], and
*The episode credits.
We know that both Donohue and Moriarty voice [[Lila]], that was what Tom Wayland said.
In fact it was Lila that was the source of the belief that Donohue and MOriarty were the same person, due to them both being credited and them both voicing the same character, albeit during different stages in her life.
I will not add any biographic info on Ann.
here's an easy way to gage my edits:
If Kether Donohue's name appears in the episode, then we can credit her. If Annice Moriarty's name is there, then we must put Annice Moriarty.

I also want to remind you of something:
I got 3 names for you:
*Allyson Johnson ([[Agatha]])
*Kathleen Delaney (Rouge the Bat)
*Caren Manuel (previously believed to have voiced both [[Agatha]] and Rough due to her similar voice to Johnson and Delaney)

Remember that?
That's the other reason why you have to be careful with pseudonyms.
thanks.
So my edits are based on the credits and what Wayland had actually said. thanks

Perhaps you guys do need to examine where it came from, that Annice Moriarty was Kether Donohue. It appears all your guys's efforts are punishing me, rather than maybe figuring out where this belief came from, like I am.
Yes it was uncontested for ages, so was Kathleen Delaney/Allyson Johnson/Caren Manuel.
I have been asking the same question over and over and over again with no answer, and it is quite frustrating. Where did you get the information from that Kether Donohue was Annice Moriarty?
I'm disregarding the fact that she is my sister, because I can't use that for sources.
However I can challenge Bulbapedia, and I am.
thanks.
[[User:African Vulture|African Vulture]] ([[User talk:African Vulture|talk]]) 22:07, 31 March 2019 (UTC)

I will talk to them.
To basically sum it up quickly, as I have to go for a bit, [[Agatha]] used to list Caren Manuel as her english VA.
For Sonic, Manuel was credit for Rouge in 4kids.
Later, it turned out that Kathleen Delaney did Rouge and Allyson Johnson did [[Agatha]].
that's the lowdown on that.
I'll talk to the admins in a bit, I have to eat and I'm going bowling for a bit.
thanks.
[[User:African Vulture|African Vulture]] ([[User talk:African Vulture|talk]]) 22:30, 31 March 2019 (UTC)

:Okay. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 22:37, 31 March 2019 (UTC)

Update, I posted to Abcboy's page.
On it I mentioned two other examples of long-held beliefs on Bulbapedia and other websites that got destroyed.
[[Megan Hollingshead]] vs. [[Lee Quick]] (Officer Jenny]], and [[Megan Hollingshead]] vs. [[Emily Niebo]] (computer from [[M02|Pokemon 2000]]). Both rolls (Officer Jenny and the palice computer) were credited both on and off Bulbapedia to Hollingshead, until it turned out (just like with [[Agatha]] and Rouge the Bat), that the long-held credit was incorrect.
So be careful with pseudonyms if they are indeed pseudonyms, because it may turn out not to be a pseudonym after all. There has to be a way not just for administrators to identify where pseudonym information comes from, but also ordinary editors and readers, so they can say, "Ok, I know where they got that."
I will also caution you about IMDB, Wikipedia doesn't like it, and when it comes to pseudonyms, there's no way to check where it gets the info from.
thanks.

== pseudonym identifications ==

Hello
The Annice Moriarty thing brings to light the issue of verification of pseudonyms.
Fore example, nobody has identified where it is they got the idea that Annice Moriarty was a pseudonym of New York-born Caucasian voice actress [[Kether Donohue]].
Even though no source has been given for even the IMDB entries, it is still widely believed. However, nothing in the wayback machine of Kether's website shows anything.

What steps should Bulbapedia and other websites do to verify VA pseudonyms, in order to prevent cases like the Annice Moriarty/Kether Donohue or the Caren Manuel/Allyson Johnson/Kathleen Delaney incidents? I would like to see some concreet ideas in verifying tha tpseudonyms are true, rather than false.

E.G. if somebody claims "Kether Donohue did this roll under Annice Moriarty!", then they should have to prove that Kether Donohue used Annice Moriarty as a pseudonym. It shouldn't be a challenger like me saying "where's the proof?" having the burden of proof on them, as we only want to prevent potential mistakes.
Let's say a pseudonym is true, E.G. John Smith uses David Jones as a pseudonym. How would we verify that John Smith and David Jones are the same person?
What has been done to me would be the person coming along and saying, "hey, where did you get that John Smith and David Jones are the same person?" and Bulbapedia responding, "you better prove that David Jones is not John Smith or else consequences."
In other words, we should assume that David Jones and John Smith are different people until a good source is able to be shown that says for sure that John Smith used David Jones.

How will we do this to prevent more Annice Moriartys or Caren Manuels?

I don't know and I won't say either way.
Hence why I hesitate to contact him again.
I think we should identify a source for the specific claim about Annice Moriarty being Kether Donohue as I'm not the only one who brought this up on the internet. You have to be able to tell people where you get information from no matter how believable it is.
We can use the Annice Moriarty case as an example to go by for future VA info such as pseudonyms.
I also wish to remind you of the Megan Hollingshead thing, where people for the longest time thought she voiced Officer Jenny.
Remember that? I did research into that and Lee Quick wasn't credited.
That's another reason to once in a while go back and double check things, even if you feel there's no need to, and even if it is uncontested for a while.
You never know, it may turn out to be unexpectedly incorrect, just like with Ann and just like with Megan Hollingshead.

:All I can say is wait for admin to respond, last time you acted before waiting, the page was protected. If you think Force Fire is ignoring you, maybe confer with other admin about it--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 13:38, 11 April 2019 (UTC)

I don't feel that FF is ignorning me, but I feel he just isn't seeing what I write. I like to view it that way so it's not so harsh. I mean being an admin is likely a busy thing.
That said, should pseudonyms come up again, please have both you and an admin discuss where it came from.
I suggest if you find pseudonyms, question them and confirm them. You add lots of awesome stuff about voice actors, and I am in love with your voice actor predictions page, it'sreally cool.
So please, even if you don't comment on the Annice Moriarty case, it can be used as an example of why pseudonyms need verification. The proof has to be viewable for Bulbapedia's readers, so we can say, "ok you got it from here." I used to get flack on Wikipedia for adding unsourced material so I only ask that everybody else be held to the same standards as me.
thanks.

== H.D. Quinn vs. Tyler Bunch ==

Hello BDF. I may have figured out who [[H.D. Quinn]] is, however I'm going to need help from you or somebody who does have twitter.
I believe Quinn to be actor Tyler Bunch, who is a member of Voices for Fosters.
I get this from the fact that all voice actors on VOF are in Pokemon, and the similar voices. Now before you do anything else please tweet Tyler (@tyler_bunch) and ask him if he works on Pokemon, then if he voices some of the characters in Pokemon that H.D. quinn voices. I'd say the best way to do it is to ask about the characters themselves and if he confirms, then ask if he uses H.D. quinn, this way we can make sure we're talking to a Pokemon VA.
Can you or somebody with a twitter help me please?

I was curious about what you think of this. Despite being recently captured, Darmanitan accepted Goh's orders without any problems. It appears to respect Pokémon it perceives as strong, such as when it greeted Ash's Dragonite with a fist bump after winning the battle against Golurk. It reveals to be smug, as it had watched Scorbunny training with Ash's Pikachu, it noticed that it didn't use any fire type moves. It demonstrates its own power to Scorbunny, Darmanitan had quickly become disrespectful to the rabbit pokemon by continually laughing away {{unsigned|Gian9456}}

== One question ==

Hi, can you help me with a question? Battle history normally enter the pages of a Pokémon? I mean, that battle of Goh against Ash, is it considered notable to be put in an article? When there was a discussion about the Scyther page, I think you said that only battles would be recorded, never cameo, so I put the battle on the Goh's Farfetch'd page and a user almost created an edit war removing this information from the my own user page claiming that such information is not notable(I looked for information in the rules and I didn't see it saying anything about it, in fact I thought the opposite of that).

Some are virtually ready, so it wouldn't need much work, but I'm doing this because I'm going to ask an administrator to delete what you're not interested in keeping active. Ash's page from the Journeys manga, I think it would be helpful to decrease the extra size of the anime counterpart's page.

I already have the captures done, I would like your opinion, is it worth putting this or the way the page is now is already enough?As I was the one who created the page initially, I wanted to make it as complete as possible with information about classes, students and places there.--[[User:Hikaru Wazana|Hikaru Wazana]] ([[User talk:Hikaru Wazana|talk]]) 18:15, 13 November 2021 (UTC)

The name given to Luno's brother in the dub I watched was Sorin.

If you have a specific post in a forum thread you want to link to, there's a button on the post to get a link directly to it. People can change how many posts they see per page, so a link to just the page number might not get them to the post. The post with the Kiley VA confirmation is the first post on page 37 for me, for instance. [[User:Glik|glik]][[User talk:Glik|glak]] 18:05, 21 January 2022 (UTC)

https://imgur.com/gallery/Trklo12

Hello. I don't know if you have permission, or if you're admin or not, but I tried to edit Ash's Talonflame's image, but it was locked. I assume because there just too many edits and back-and-forth arguements about the image. I found a image that might suit better than the current one, but as I said earlier, I can't edit. I was searching for users that possibly could and came to your page, so hopefully you can help. Do you think this image here is good enough to replace the current one?

== Leon's Charizard ==
Hi. I don't know where else to communicate with you, so I'll be coming here. Sorry to bother, BTW. But I don't know if I'm seeing it wrong, but I think the image you uploaded for Leon's Charizard has a small error from the animation team. Charizard's eyes are completely black instead of blue like all other Charizard in the anime are depicted. I just wanted to confirm whether I noticed the error or if I was wrong about it. Again, sorry to bother.

== Italian redub and voice actors ==

Since you're specialized in VA stuff, I would like to ask a favour. I've been adding a good number of Italian roles, but there's a little issue. Since Season 1 and 3 were redubbed, I sometimes have trouble founding a standardized way way to represent VA roles without creating ambiguites. For example, in {{an|Misty}}'s page we have "Benedetta Ponticelli ([[BW116]], K2 redub)", because BW116 is the only not-redubbed episode where she voiced her and K2/TPCi redub refers to EP001-EP157 (excluding Season 2) Should this be specified to not give the impression that she voiced her in a BW116 redub? So far this has generally been done when more than one actor has voiced the same character in said redub ({{an|Giovanni}} is such a case). For comparison's sake, I suggest to look how it was handled for [[Duplica]], [[Todd Snap]], and [[Jessebelle]]. If you need more details I'll provide what I can. Thanks.--[[User:Ricbolog1310|Ricbolog1310]] ([[User talk:Ricbolog1310|talk]]) 08:01, 16 April 2022 (UTC)

== Goh's Arctozolt ==
Hey, I rewatched some of Journeys's old episodes, and saw that Goh's Arctozolt appeared in (at least) three episodes. Its debut episode, well it was prominent for about 90% of the episode (unlike most of Goh's Pokémon). And like, I said, made a few more (somewhat) prominent appearances on Journeys. I already have a draft created and ready to post it, so may I have permission to officially post an Arctozolt article on the Main Page of Bulbapedia?

[[User:HygorBH|HygorBH]] ([[User talk:HygorBH|talk]]) 04:49, 26 June 2022 (UTC)

== Goh's Venomoth ==
For starters, I want to apologize for the Butterfree article without asking for permission first. I know I've been warned before, but it legit skipped my mind as I started creating it. It won't happen again, I guarantee it.

On that note, I was wondering about Goh's Venomoth. It has just about the same appearances and relevance as Goh's Butterfree, and many episodes, those two share moments together and work together as well. So, I was wondering if Venomoth should also get its own page. [[User:HygorBH|HygorBH]] ([[User talk:HygorBH|talk]]) 19:15, 9 July 2022 (UTC)

::::I'd like to give my view, sorry if it seems like an intrusion, but I think that at the current moment it's not very good to make pages for Goh's Pokémon. We're going to the moment in the anime where either Pokémon is going to be important or not, mainly because we don't know what Goh's role will be after Journeys. In theory, the only story arc that Goh will receive will be the conclusion of Project Mew and I don't think we'll see much beyond that. I say this because I intended to make a page for Regieleki, but without more information I will avoid doing it.[[User:Hikaru Wazana|Hikaru Wazana]] ([[User talk:Hikaru Wazana|talk]]) 14:33, 10 July 2022 (UTC)

Hi Joe today (10.09.2022) you retracted my edit on the page about Raichu -> Minor appearances section . It said in parentheses that it was Raichu Goh's.
So that means I shouldn't add it if this Raichu was Goh'a or other trainers even though He appeared in the episode ?
I apologize for asking probably such a trivial question however I would not want to make the same mistake again.

::::::Of course, I understand you, but there are really a lot of excerpted episodes in which Raichu does nothing or appears for about 4 seconds throughout the episode or is somewhere far in the background for a moment. (I am, of course, able to give examples of such episodes there are several and I know them) In my opinion, if there is already a list with such episodes then why not also add, for example, what I wanted to add. As for the episodes in which a particular Pokemon appears for only a brief moment, in my opinion it should be specified than just information that he appears there. I think it would bring more order, and there are quite a few episodes where such information would be useful in my opinio, Of course, I realize that you would have to go through hundreds of episodes now, but you can always introduce something like this ''from now on''.

:::::::If the Raichu in question was [[Goh's Raichu]], then it'll never be listed in 'minor appearances' because it is already considered 'major' regardless of its role in individual episodes, and most, if not all of its appearances should be listed on the article. If we listed every time one of a main character's pokemon simply showed up in an episode as background fodder under minor appearance, that'd become untenable. You'll note that Ash's Muk doesn't have every time it hugs Oak listed under {{p|Muk|Minor}}.

Thanks for your help with the move from Rocket Brothers to Rocket Siblings. On a related note, might you be able to help facilitate a decision on a couple other pages that may need moving? The page [[Memory (game mechanic)]] and [[Mystery Dungeon game mechanics]] use the full term "game mechanic" while [[Season (mechanic)]] and [[Pokémon Tower (mechanic)]] use just "mechanic". Could we settle on one for consistency sake and then move the appropriate articles?

== Pokémon Mezastar and others ==

Hello, I have a series of questions and I don't know if I would get the answers from you, I hope I'm not bothering you, but here goes:
* I started a thread on Ash's page about a split, do you have any thoughts on that? Would it be possible for you to give your point of view on this? I started the initial project of what would be the new section of the games page with the presence of Ash, did you get to look?
* I put some sections referring to Pokémon Mezastar in some pages of characters, I uploaded some images too, the image of Iris I left as the main artwork of her page. Was it the best option? I mean, would it be better to leave the image of the anime itself or is the use of this better?I left it with the game art because it shows Iris with a full body, but I don't think the decision is up to me.
* Are the images properly hosted?
* I even believe that these sections need a bit of a revamp, who do I talk to to help me with the layout of the Pokémon section?
* That page I created for Diantha, do you think it has a chance of going to mainspace? I mean, she appears in several episodes after I made the first page analysis request.
I believe this is it, thanks in advance-[[User:Hikaru Wazana|Hikaru Wazana]] ([[User talk:Hikaru Wazana|talk]]) 05:00, 15 September 2022 (UTC)

'''Pokémon: Mewtwo Returns''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスター　ミュウツー！{{tt|我|われ}}ハココニ{{tt|在|あ}}リ　MEWTWO SAGA''' ''Pocket Monsters: Mewtwo! I Am Here - MEWTWO SAGA'') is the first feature-length special of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on December 30, 2000. It was then released on DVD in the US on December 4, 2001.

It is a sequel to ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]''.

==Plot==
[[File:Mewtwo Returns DVD US.png|thumb|230px|left|DVD cover]]
{{OBP|Mewtwo|M01}}, its heart having been softened by the selfless example of [[Ash Ketchum]] back in the eastern [[Kanto]] [[region]], has now traveled to the western region of [[Johto]] in search of a place unreachable to the prying eyes and harsh judgments of humans for the sake of the band of cloned Pokémon, whose welfare Mewtwo is entirely concerned with. Mewtwo eventually finds the perfect hideaway: a huge mountain named [[Mount Quena]], surrounded by steep cliffs that are practically impossible to scale, but in its crater is a freshwater lake and a forest that is home to many {{t|Bug}} Pokémon. This is a perfect fit for Mewtwo's band, so they settle in the top of Mount Quena and begin a new, safe life. Mewtwo, feeling that clones do not belong in the outside world because they were not born in it, watches over as their guardian. Mewtwo seems particularly close to the [[Pikachutwo|Pikachu]] and {{p|Meowth}} clones, spending most of its private time with them, possibly reflecting how important their templates were in its change of heart.

{{an|Giovanni}}, however, is determined to possess Mewtwo once again, and has been planning a militaristic assault upon wherever Mewtwo has settled to take the Pokémon back for himself. He at last locates Mewtwo in its new mountain retreat, so the Team Rocket Combat Unit heads toward Mount Quena.

Ash and {{ashfr}}—on their Pokémon journey as always—are passing through an area around Mount Quena called [[Mount Quena#Purity Canyon|Purity Canyon]], which is known as [[Johto]]'s greatest natural wonder. Unfortunately, they miss the only bus that goes through the area and an unpredicted typhoon forces them to stay at a lodge at the foot of the mountain with a woman who could not board the full bus. On the road, the bus is swept up high powerful winds, but is set down by Mewtwo's powers, much to the confusion of its riders. In Mewtwo's lair, Pikachutwo questions this action, which Mewtwo explains was to prevent rescuers from jeopardizing the clones' seclusion. Meowthtwo suggests it may also have been done out of compassion, of which Mewtwo says it has none for humans.

Back at the lodge, Pokémon naturalist [[Luna Carson]] explains that the only ways through the valley are a canoe ride down the river or the monthly bus service. Later, Luna serves them fresh water from [[Mount Quena#Purity River|Purity River]], and everyone but Ash is amazed by its taste. With no other option for transportation, the group leave that night, taking the canoes downstream. Along the way, they come across the Bug Pokémon {{p|Ledian}}, {{p|Kakuna}}, {{p|Weedle}}, {{p|Pinsir}}, and {{p|Beedrill}}, the last of which causes {{an|Misty}} to frantically paddle back upstream. Back at the lodge, {{an|Brock}} suggests they scale Mount Quena, but Luna warns that is impassible despite featuring beautiful [[Mount Quena#Clarity Lake|Clarity Lake]] in its crater. A knock on the door brings new lodge inhabitants: medical researcher [[Cullen Calix]] and a spunky girl from the Pokémon Institute, [[Domino]]. Cullen says he is studying the medicinal properties of Purity River water and wants to explore Mount Quena, which Luna laments would bring tourists and destruction to the ecosystem.

Suddenly, {{TRT}} announces their presence with firecrackers and their {{motto}}. [[James]] grabs {{AP|Pikachu}} with an electricity-absorbing whip and escapes with [[Jessie]], and {{MTR}} in their rocket-powered balloon, but the turbulent winds cause them to lose control and push them toward Mount Quena. The group equips climbing gear and chases after them, avoiding gusty winds and even a falling boulder. Team Rocket's balloon swings by and hooks their climbing rope, dragging the group into the air. Domino spots Mewtwo in Mount Quena through her binoculars and transmits a video feed to none other than Giovanni. Upon seeing the approaching Combat Unit, Domino climbs up the rope past the others, lands in the balloon's basket, and reveals herself to be in league with Team Rocket as elite Agent 009, also known as The Black Tulip for her use of the flowers as weapons. Domino pops the balloon with one and sends everyone else plummeting onto the mountain while she returns via paraglider to Giovanni's large helicopter to report on Mewtwo's status.

Pikachu and Team Rocket end up separated from the others and quickly encounter the clones. Pikachu's clone attacks Pikachu for suddenly appearing, but Mewtwo forces it to stop. Agitated by the approaching humans, Pikachutwo rallies the other clones to fight back against the invading Combat Unit. Mewtwo stays behind with other clones and contemplates whether to stop the fighters from endangering themselves or letting them act freely. Ash and the other humans land unharmed, but separated from Pikachu by a lake. They use {{AP|Bulbasaur}} and {{AP|Chikorita}}'s {{m|Razor Leaf}} to make a canoe and oars out of a fallen tree, and with it they traverse the lake to reach the island at the center of Mount Quena's crater. They enter a natural sanctuary in the island, where Cullen discovers that the water inside could have a profound impact on medicine. Luna fears that any future human presence could taint the purity of the water and destroy the habitat.

Some of the clones imprison Jessie and James in a cave and head off with Pikachu and Meowth to fight Team Rocket's forces. However, as soon as the Pokémon land ashore, a Team Rocket helicopter appears and stuns the clones with energy blasts. An airship drops Team Rocket [[Poké Ball]]s that capture most of the clones, and just as Pikachutwo is about to be caught by one, Pikachu deflects it with an electric attack. He also shocks Pikachutwo in order to invigorate it and escape, which Meowth emulates by scratching Meowthtwo's face. The four Pokémon flee from the helicopter's blasts, but find themselves trapped against a hill. A {{m|Shadow Ball}} saves the group from an incoming stun blast, revealing Mewtwo floating in the air behind the helicopter. Mewtwo frees the clone, disintegrates their Poké Balls, and throws another Shadow Ball, but the helicopter evades the attack.

Giovanni emerges on a platform to speak with Mewtwo, but the Pokémon refuses to go along with Giovanni's plans. The helicopter deploys two machines that surround Mewtwo and give it a powerful electric shock. Mewtwo pushes the machines into rock walls with its psychic power and defies Giovanni once more. Giovanni turns his attention to the island harboring the rest of the clones for phase two of the operation. Along with paragliding Team Rocket Grunts, Domino flies over using a jetpack and eventually comes across Ash's group, who are quickly restrained by metal rings to prevent their interference. Domino subdues the island's Pokémon with stunning tulips and restraining rings and reports her findings to Giovanni, who challenges Mewtwo to stop him. Mewtwo declares that it will protect the clones and telekinetically brings the other Pokémon to the island with it.

Soon, Domino, Mewtwo, and Giovanni meet on the island, at which point Giovanni tells Mewtwo that it must surrender. Mewtwo replies that it would rather leave this world than serve him, but Giovanni threatens to subject the other clones to experiments that would cause them to perish. Mewtwo then agrees. Giovanni reactivates the machines from earlier and tells Mewtwo to enter the energy field between them, which will harness Mewtwo's power and bend its will to his. Domino demonstrates Team Rocket's threat by firing blasts from her tulip at Pikachutwo. With Mewtwo trapped by the force of the machines' energy and his operation successful, Giovanni makes plans to build a Team Rocket laboratory on the island to create an army of powerful clone Pokémon. Mewtwo ceases its struggle just as Giovanni states that it will be his tool to rule the world. The other characters and Pokémon are then locked away in a prison cell, where Ash is reunited with Pikachu.

Outside, construction is well under way on the Team Rocket base. In a phone call, Giovanni tells Domino that Mewtwo's brain waves are resisting the machine's influence at a rate that would destroy its body before giving in. The industrial waste from the base attracts the ire of Mount Quena's resident Bug Pokémon: hundreds of Ledian, {{p|Butterfree}}, and Beedrill, whose lake water is now polluted. When the welders inside the facility are taken out by Butterfree's {{m|Sleep Powder}}, a dropped blowtorch ignites the fuel cells below and causes enormous chain explosions, one of which destroys the cell bars and frees the human and Pokémon prisoners. Luna and Cullen head toward the spring to check its purity.

Domino throws black tulips at a group of Ledian, but several {{p|Scyther}} slice the weapons up. She then uses a rod-like tulip to fend off an attacking Scyther and vault over the Ledian swarm. After being forced to mop the floor earlier, Jessie and James enjoy Domino slipping and falling head-first into a bucket of water.

Ash, Pikachu, Misty, Brock, Pikachutwo, Meowth, and Meowthtwo find Mewtwo. Everyone but Misty tries to free Mewtwo by tackling one of the machines, but it only tips over and maintains the energy field. Mewtwo resorts to using the last of its power to overload the machines. Pikachu and Pikachutwo use {{m|Thunderbolt}} on one of them, which explodes. The field breaks, and Mewtwo collapses to the ground. The other machine appears to malfunction and self-destruct. Before they can take Mewtwo to the spring to recover, Giovanni appears with Team Rocket and claims that Mewtwo belongs to him. Brock and Misty release all their Pokémon to fight, and the clone and Bug Pokémon show up as well. Meowth flees the scene with Jessie and James while Ash takes Mewtwo away by himself.

As Ash, Bulbasaur, and Chikorita transport Mewtwo to safety, Mewtwo asks why Ash is helping it. Ash replies that Mewtwo saving Pikachu is one reason, and at Mewtwo's questioning, goes on to say that you do not need a reason to help someone in trouble. Mewtwo reflects that Ash may be one-of-a-kind, but Ash says that everyone is. They reach the heart of the mountain, and despite Cullen's protests that Mewtwo may contaminate the spring, Ash throws Mewtwo in because it needs the water's healing power most. Since the water heals it like it does other Pokémon, Mewtwo realizes that it does belong in this world. A blast from a helicopter announces Giovanni's sudden presence, but a rejuvenated Mewtwo rises from the water to protect the land it calls home. Mewtwo causes a great blue light to shoot up from the entire lake and pierce the heavens.

Night has fallen, and Team Rocket wake up from unconsciousness in a dry crater. Underground, Mewtwo explains to the other humans that it has moved the lake and spring inside Mount Quena for greater protection. When Mewtwo decides to erase the memories of everyone involved, Meowth and the other Pokémon object, arguing that the past forms part of a living creature's identity and it is entitled to it. Misty and Brock add that forgetting the past does not change it and everyone deserves to know where they came from. Mewtwo changes its mind, stating that we should be able to look to the past just as much as the future, and the shame of others' wrongdoing is theirs alone. A group of Butterfree spread powder enhanced with Mewtwo's psychic abilities to erase the memories of the Team Rocket operatives as well as Luna and Cullen, whose well-meaning desire to research the spring may put it in jeopardy. Like the Team Rocket trio before them, Ash and his friends board a Pikachu balloon to leave Mount Quena. Mewtwo earnestly thanks them for their help and departs with all the cloned Pokémon to live elsewhere as natural Pokémon in the wild.

Some time later, as Ash, Misty, and Brock walk through a city, Ash hears Mewtwo's voice, but is uncertain whether it was real or just a memory. The [[narrator]] concludes the movie with the rumors of a Pokémon who traverses a faraway city at night.

==Trivia==
[[File:Baby Nidoqueen and Baby Rhyhorn.png|thumb|250px|Baby Nidoqueen and Rhyhorn]]
* This special was released between [[EP178]] and [[EP179]] in Japan.
* In reruns on [[Kids Station]] and on VOD services such as [[Prime Video]] and [[Hulu]], the special is split into three episodes listed as part of the original series between [[EP178]] and [[EP179]], with each part including the regular [[OK!|opening]] and [[To My Best Friend|ending]] animations, title cards, and next episode previews.
* Before being blasted off by the typhoon, {{TRT}} said: "How many times must our plans be destroyed, before they're allowed to be tried? The answer my friend, is blowin' in the wind!", referencing the {{wp|Bob Dylan}} song "{{wp|Blowin' in the Wind}}".
* This was the first time that any part of the {{pkmn|anime}}, other than openings and segments, used digital coloring.
* During the conversation between [[Ash's Pikachu]], [[Pikachutwo]], and {{OBP|Mewtwo|M01}} (immediately following Pikachu's arrival on the island), [[James]] comments, "This is like the sequel to a movie I missed." [[Breaking the fourth wall]], this comment is essentially true, since Mewtwo wiped James's memory of the events of ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]''.
* Music from ''Mewtwo Strikes Back'' is used extensively in this special.
* The cloned {{p|Nidoqueen}} and {{p|Rhyhorn}} are shown to have produced offspring. Even if Nidoqueen was able to produce {{pkmn|Egg}}s, the babies would ''all'' be {{p|Nidoran♀|the first member of the female evolutionary line}}. This may be due to [[anime physics]] or their nature as clones, but the fact that nobody questioned their existence (or know about the clones yet) would suggest it was simply an error.
* When the clones are captured by Team Rocket's [[Poké Ball]]s, they become white energy instead of red, as usual. This may be attributed to the nature of clones or the Balls themselves.
* When [[Domino]] tosses out electric net-like lines, they electrocute both Rhyhorn and Nidoqueen clones. However, if clones keep the same type combinations as their originals, their {{t|Ground}} type should make them immune. This may be due to anime physics or the nets being made with advanced technology.
* At the end, Ash says "'''This time''' we'll both be able to remember." This may mean that Mewtwo informed him of their previous encounter. However, this is dub-only.
* At the end, Mewtwo overlooks a city whose buildings are similar to {{wp|New York City}}'s {{wp|Empire State Building}} and {{wp|MetLife Building}}.
** This ending is later referenced in the credits of ''[[M16|Genesect and the Legend Awakened]]'', when another {{OBP|Mewtwo|M16}} is last seen overlooking a city at night.
* The [[List of English language Pokémon anime special home video releases (Region 2)|United Kingdom VHS release]] refers to the special as ''Pokémon: Mewtwo Returns - The Movie''.
* In ''[[AG115|Mean With Envy]]'', {{an|Brock}} comments that an ice sculpture of {{an|Giovanni}} looks "oddly familiar", thus making the events of this special [[canon]] with the main series anime, as this is the only time when Brock has ever met Giovanni.
* The design of Giovanni's airship would later be used as a [[List of cross-canon references|basis]] of the [[Team Rocket airship]] in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] {{pkmn|manga}}.
* A post-credits scene in ''[[M22|Mewtwo Strikes Back—Evolution]]'' shows Mewtwo and the clones arriving at [[Mount Quena]], foreshadowing the events of this special.

===Errors===
* When the clones are first shown on Mount Quena, {{DL|Mewtwo (M01)|Blastoisetwo}}'s lower jaw is blue instead of beige.
* While riding on Blastoisetwo's back on their way to the battle, {{MTR}} and {{DL|Mewtwo (M01)|Meowthtwo}}'s feet are a darker brown than usual.
* Giovanni and [[Domino]] emerge from the helicopter side-by-side, but the next shot shows Domino farther back and the platform appears to have changed shape. When the camera angle changes again, she is back in her original position.

===Dub edits===
* The dub adds Mewtwo's beginning monologue of the first movie's events, whereas the original had the montage with no commentary.
* Domino only calls Mount Quena a "remote area in Johto" in the dub.
* Mewtwo's opening lines are mostly different in the dub. After pondering its existence, Mewtwo originally explains who it and the {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} accompanying it are, and their origins. In the dub, Mewtwo says it feels it has no right to judge their habitat as beautiful because the clones are artificial. Similarly, the dub implies that the clones were victims of discrimination, while the Japanese version states that they chose to avoid the outside world.
* The dub states that the bus trips are monthly instead of weekly.
* The meal Brock planned to make was changed from pancakes with lots of syrup to "spicy pizza pancakes."
* There were several differences when Meowth reads the Mount Quena guidebook.
** Both versions mention Mt. Quena's volatile typhoons, but the dub adds that severe blizzards and thunderstorms also occur.
** Meowth identifies the storm as a typhoon instead of Jessie.
** The guidebook advises not to go to Mt. Quena in the dub, while the original states that tourists generally avoid it completely.
** Meowth's {{wp|Blowin' in the Wind}} reference was only in the dub. He originally says "Everyone, all together now…" implying that blasting off has become routine.
* [[Luka Carson]] is not identified as Luna's older sister in the dub.
* Brock's comment about getting "real close" under the frying pan was originally about using it as a "[https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/相合傘 love-love umbrella]," a term for an umbrella shared by lovers in Japan.
* Luna originally offers to let them in for a shower and change of clothes, but does not mention the chances of going to Mount Quena on foot.
* Instead of denying a soft spot for humans after saving them, Mewtwo thinks about the possibility in the original.
* Luna adds that the lodge was built ten years ago.
* Ash says the water tastes okay in the original, but {{Delia|his mother}}'s chocolate milk tastes better. In the dub, Ash instead says it "tastes like something's been swimming around in it."
* Luna calls Mount Quena the highest mountain in Johto in the dub, whereas she only states that the steep cliffs prevent human activity from accessing the area in the original.
** She also claims that only Pokémon that can survive in the extreme conditions can live up on the mountain, when in the original, she mentions that water flows into Purity Lake through the river.
* The scene in which Mewtwo talks with Pikachutwo and Meowthtwo about their next actions has some differences:
** Mewtwo's attitude is changed from normal to rude and dismissive.
** Pikachutwo originally compares their Mt. Quena hideout to being locked up in a jail cell, something not expressed in the dub.
** Luna's specification that researching native Pokémon is her full-time job and manning the bus stop is part-time are dub-only.
* The dated slang used by Domino when formally introducing herself to Luna was dub-only.
* In the Japanese version, Cullen specifies that he wants to study Purity Lake to verify if it was responsible for the river's famous purity, something not directly stated in the dub.
* When escaping, Jessie makes a reference to the Frank Sinatra song "{{wp|Fly Me to the Moon}}," something not very apparent in the dub.
* Giovanni mentions that Mewtwo's companions are "unnatural" in the dub. He originally is not surprised by their presence and mentions that even Mewtwo would desire companionship.
* The dub removes the modified [[Team Rocket]] {{motto}} Domino says in her introduction.
* Domino originally mentions that she is an A-Class Numbers member of Team Rocket, while the dub replaces this with her codenames 009 and Black Tulip.
** Only in the dub does Domino confirm that she works for the Pokémon Institute.
* Jessie originally asks why their hot air balloon has no safety devices at all, when in the dub she considers an alternate mode of transportation.
* Mewtwo's reason for scolding Pikachutwo is changed from having an unnecessary battle with {{AP|Pikachu}} to starting a fight in the first place. In addition, when Mewtwo states that the clones and originals are both living things, the dub adds a reference to the events of the first movie.
* In the original, Mewtwo hoped that the Team Rocket trio would just forget about the clones, but their crashing into Mt. Quena made that impossible, something the dub does not directly indicate.
* Pikachutwo's questioning of its role and existence is more of a rant in the dub.
** In addition, Jessie and James's reasons for sympathizing with the clones were completely different between the versions. In the Japanese, they sympathized with wanting to go out into the world and be free. In the dub, Jessie only seems to sympathize with being a misfit, with James agreeing in a variation of their motto.
* In Pikachutwo's warning to evacuate before Team Rocket arrives, it adds that the experiments they planned to do on them involved cloning, which the Japanese version does not specify.
** Pikachutwo also says that this is their chance to strike, something implied but not directly stated in the dub.
** Mewtwo's comment about evacuating and finding another hideout omits the reference to the humans as their parents.

* Cullen deduces that Purity Lake is the source for Purity River in the dub when he originally states that he found Purity Lake.
* Luna's warning that disrupting the balance of the water would affect the Pokémon's sensibility and personalities in addition to their health was cut in the dub.
* Meowthtwo originally expresses interest in the moon before Meowth warns him to forget it and flee before the Poké Balls capture them, but this was not directly indicated in the dub.
* Mewtwo grunting when using attacks was cut from the dub.
* In the dub, Giovanni mentions having put a "considerable investment" on the machines used to contain Mewtwo. In the original line, he merely tells Mewtwo that the power of humans is nothing to look down upon.
* The exchange of words between Mewtwo and Giovanni in the next scene was notably changed in the dub. Mewtwo says that Giovanni will not be able to defeat it and Giovanni replies that Mewtwo's Psychic powers cannot influence machines. Mewtwo originally asks if Giovanni thinks heartless machines will be able to defeat it and Giovanni replies that the machines are designed to capture Mewtwo, not defeat it.
* Prior to locking them up, Domino originally gave a thinly veiled threat that she and her men would kill Ash, Misty, Brock, Luna, and Cullen for seeing too much if they dare try to resist their captivity. This was toned down in the dub.
* The scene with Team Rocket in the jail cell is completely different between the two versions: Originally, Jessie and James note they have yet to say their catchphrase when blasting off, so they decide to use it while waiting for Meowth's return. In the dub, they decide to rehearse a new motto in the event of Meowth's desertion, only to use a variation of their blast-off catchphrase.
** The shot of when Jessie and James say "Looks like Team Rocket's never blasting off again!" and the camera zooms out to view Mount Quena was shortened by six seconds in the dub.
* Domino's report has her mentioning Ash's name to Giovanni in the Japanese version, something omitted in the dub.
* Giovanni mentions that depending on Mewtwo's next move, the cloned Pokémon will either live or die in the Japanese version, while the dub has him demanding to know whether Mewtwo intends to let its clone Pokémon battle him alone.
* Instead of Meowth asking to keep his aid to the clones a secret from Giovanni, in the dub he decides to follow Mewtwo's example of selflessness in aiding the clones.
* Mewtwo's and Giovanni's references to death (opting to die over serving Giovanni and threatening to subject the clones to deadly experiments, respectively) were toned down to a softer "leave this world."
* Mewtwo specifies in the Japanese version that Giovanni's after it, not the other clones when deciding to submit, something not made clear in the dub.
* In the dub, Giovanni intends to turn the island into a new laboratory, whereas he talks about a secret base in the original.
* Giovanni claims that he will pursue world domination with Mewtwo leading his army of cloned super-Pokémon in the dub, while he originally says Mewtwo will look forward to the day his army is complete.
* When Giovanni and Domino talk about Mewtwo's weakened state, Domino originally says that Mewtwo's death would be the loss of everything they have worked so hard for. Likely to avoid a reference to death in the dub, Domino says that it would take years to clone Mewtwo again.
* When angry {{t|Bug}} Pokémon start attacking Team Rocket and [[Giovanni's Persian]] grows restless, Giovanni shushes it in the dub, whereas he asks it what is wrong originally.
* When Domino launches several tulips at the Bug Pokémon in the original version, she calls out what can be translated as "Shoot blindly!" or "Disorderly shot!", as if it was the name of an attack like a Pokémon would use. In the dub, there was no dialogue in this scene.
* In the original version, James mentions that Giovanni catching him and Jessie dawdling would look very bad, while in the dub, James says that Giovanni will ask for their expense report as a drastic measure.
* In the dub, Giovanni yells "No!" when Ash moves Mewtwo, but he originally orders his men to go after them.
* In the original, Giovanni says that they must kill all the cloned Pokémon when they prevent him and his men from pursuing Ash and Pikachu. In the dub, he only says that he will "crush them".
* The dub omits Ash's explanation that Mewtwo needs to be completely submerged into Purity Lake if it is to heal since a sip of water might not be enough.
* Mewtwo's soliloquy when being submerged was originally reiterating its questions about itself, and then deciding that it was a living being that deserves to live in this world as much as anyone else.
* After Mewtwo moves the lake into hiding in the dub, Ash says that he wants to tell {{an|Professor Oak}} about this. Originally, Ash awes how amazing Mewtwo's powers are.
* Mewtwo realizing it should not eliminate the shame of the past and protect it from those who do want to silence it was dub-only. Originally, it only said that the clone Pokémon have every right to live in the natural world and they should pursue their own journey.
* When leaving, Meowth originally said the moon was full and the weather was perfect for flying, while in the dub, he tells the clones to say "hello" if they ever fly by their balloon.
* Ash implies that Mewtwo told him about what happened in their prior meeting in the dub, but he only says he would like to meet it again in the original.
* Mewtwo does not mention going from time and space to Ash if it ever hears him in the original, instead mentioning that Ash should turn around if he mentions its name.
* Cullen originally said he was staying behind to continue his research, instead of whether he and Luna had anything in common besides research like in the dub.
* When Ash hears Mewtwo's voice in the big city, it says "I will remember you, always" in the dub, when it originally says "I am here," a reference to the special's Japanese title.
* The [[narrator]]'s closing line says nothing about moonlight in the Japanese version, instead wondering if the rumors of a mysterious Pokémon in living a city somewhere are true or not.
